Prelude
(On the battle field)
The Kyuubi no kitsune's roar shook the land as its nine tails lashed out across the forest just outside Konoha. Destroying trees and sending shockwaves out across the bloodied landscape, littered with bodies, as the beast continued its rampage toward the village.
"It's coming this way! We have to hold the line until Yondaime arrives!" yelled Jounin captain, jumping out of the way of a falling tree.
"Don't let it get any closer to the village!" shouted another Jounin throwing a handful of kunai toward the fox.
The battle waged on as shinobi after shinobi sacrificed their lives desperately fighting to save their home. Until when all hope seemed lost their savior, the Yondaime Hokage, the Yellow Flash, emerged from the chaos riding atop the head of a giant, reddish-brown toad.
"Minato!" a voice shouted from behind the blonde shinobi.
An aged man appeared behind the legendary Hokage. With long, white hair down to his lower back sticking out in all directions pulled back into a low ponytail. The man was clad in a red kabuki outfit, with red wooden sandals, and a large scroll across his back. It was Jiraiya of the sannin.
"Jiraiya-sensei, it's good to see you. How is the frontline holding up?" asked Minato calmly, as he turned to address the self proclaimed toad sage.
"It's not going well. We're throwing everything we can at it but we can't even slow the damn thing down! If this keeps up we're going to be wiped out!" yelled Jiraiya in frustration.
"Order everyone back to the village wall I'll take over from here." replied the blonde.
It was then that the white haired sannin noticed the small wrapped bundle being cradled in Minato's arms.
"I-is that…" Jiraiya trailed off solemnly.
"Yes… This is Namikaze Naruko… My daughter." answered Minato softly, glancing down warmly at the sleeping baby girl in his arms.
The infant had a small tuft of bright blonde hair on her head and three thin whisker marks on her cheeks, making her quite adorable looking.
Realization lit up the sannin's haggard face, as well as a sad smile.
"She's beautiful… What about Kushina?" questioned Jiraiya.
He received no reply as the Yondaime's expression fell and sorrow flashed through his usually bright blue eyes. He unconsciously held the little bundle in his arms closer to him, as he fought back the tears welling up in his eyes.
"I see…" muttered Jiraiya fully understanding what the look meant. "So you're going through with it then?"
"Yes, there's no other way."
"But sealing the fox in your own daughter? Are you really okay with forcing such a burden on her?" Jiraiya tried to reason with him.
"How could I ask anyone else in Konoha to give up their child for this when I wouldn't give up my own to protect our home?" asked young Hokage, to which the sannin simply bowed his head in defeat.
"Will you do something for me after I am gone?" questioned Minato, Jiraiya nodded to him. "Tell the council I wish that Naruko be seen as a hero in our village. For by containing the fox in her tiny body, she is saving them all."
"I-I will…" mumbled Jiraiya softly.
"Thank you Jiraiya-sensei. It was truly an honor to be the student of the infamous supper pervert." smiled Minato, making Jiraiya chuckle briefly before turning back to the battlefield as the Kyuubi let loose a mighty roar.
"It's time, take care of yourself ero-sennin." Minato chuckled flashing one of his trademark foxy grins. Jiraiya nodded curtly before vanishing in a poof of smoke, fully knowing it would be the last time he saw his blonde haired student again.

(Hokage tower a few hours later)
Sarutobi sat at the Hokage's desk holding a familiar bundle in his arms, a tuft of blonde hair sticking out of the top. Jiraiya stood leaning against the window frame behind him, a melancholy look on his face.
"So everything went okay with the seal correct?" inquired the Sandaime.
"Yeah there were no complications at all," responded the self proclaimed Toad Sage, "are you really going to go through with this?"
"Yes," sighed Sarutobi, "I believe it's for the best…"
"Alright it's your call. I better be heading off now, I've got some contacts I need to check on in my spy network." said Jiraiya opening the window, to jump out it.
"Don't forget to stop by every once in a while to say hi," replied Sarutobi, thinking for a moment before adopting a perverted grin. "Oh and don't forget to send me a copy of your latest book when you are finally done with it."
"Oh ho ho of course I will! I just need to do some more "research" before it's ready…" the two shared a perverted giggle for a minute before Jiraiya jumped out the window and into the night.
Sarutobi chuckled for a while longer then got up walking to the door.
"Now then, let's get you over to the orphanage shall we Naruto-kun?" Sarutobi asked the small blonde haired boy in his arms…

(nine years later, streets of Konoha)
Naruto Uzumaki was running for his life. Today was his birthday and just like on every single birthday he had, he was being attacked by someone and didn't know why. However, this time he wasn't being chased by some angery villagers, but by three leaf shinobi who looked like they were chunnin.
"YOU WONT GET AWAY YOU MONSTER!"
"COME BACK HERE DEMON!"
"TODAY'S THE DAY YOU PAY FOR ALL THE POEPLE YOU MURDERED!"
"BUT I HAVEN'T HURT ANYBODY!" cried Naruto desperately.
The only reply he got was a sudden, agonizing pain in his right shoulder, causing him to cry out and stuble falling to the ground. He looked back to see what caused the pain to see a kunai lodged deep in his shoulder. The three leaf shinobi instantly surrounded him, cutting off any hope he had to escape.
"P-please don't hurt m-me... I didn't kill anyone... I'm n-not a monster..." blubbered the terrified blonde looking up at his attackers.
"Like we would believe any of your lies you bastard." sneered the shinobi on Naruto's right side. Delievering a brutal kick to the boys ribs, causing him to yelp in pain.
The others joined in, smiling as they kicked and punched the defenseless child. Naruto curled into a ball to try to fend off the blows, but it did little to cusion the pain.
'Please! S-someone help m-me! I don't want t-to die!' yelled Naruto in his head.

Hinata wasn't having a good day. She was walking home in her pale, blue kimono she had worn to the festival today. The festival happened every in celebration of the day the Yondaime had given his life to kill the Kyuubi. She was sad that she hadn't seen Naruto at the festival at all today.
Today was his birthday and she was hoping to tell him she liked him today. Ever since the day he saved her from three bullies who were picking on her when she was yonger, she had started to watch him in sercret. She admired him for his confidence which she sorely lacked, he was her inspiration. Everytime she felt bad for messing up during her jyuuken practice, or when one of the elders had called her a failure, all she had to do was think about him and it gave her the strength to keep trying, no matter how many times she messed up. After a while she had developed a huge crush on him, but was just too nervous to tell him. She could barely keep from blushing everytime she even saw him.
She had spent the whole day yesterday gathering her courage to tell him today. And now she walked home disappointed because she couldn't find him and didn't know if she could ever work up the courage to tell him again.
'W-why a-am I s-so weak...' Hinata thought degectedly. 'e-even if I c-could t-tell him it w-wouldn't m-matter s-someone as st-strong as he is c-could never l-like a f-failure like m-m-me...'
Tears streamed down her face as she continued down the road to her home lost in her thoughts.
Faint shouting in the distance caught her attention. Curious, she did a few hand signs focusing chakra into her eyes liek she had practiced.
"Byakugan." she whispered faintly, activating her bloodline, the veins around her eyes buldging out slightly. She gasped in shock a moment later at what she saw.
'Oh no! T-there attacking Naruto-kun!' she thought panicked, 'I-I have to get help!'
She was about to run to get help but when one of the three raised a kunai in his hand, her body acted on its own.
XxXxX
Naruto's whole body hurt, he had blood all over his head from the attack and he was sure he had a couple broken ribs. His vision was fading as he barely held on to conciousness as the hits slowed before stopping completely. He lay still tears streaking down his cheeks, hoping that if he didn't move they would be discouraged and leave him alone but luck was not on his side.
"Let's finish this before someone shows up." sneered the shinobi on Naruto's left side. He pulled out a kunai from its pouch on his thigh and raised it above his head to finish off the boy.
'S-so this is how it ends...' thought Naruto sadly, 'I-I guess it doesn't matter, no one cares about me. The only person who was ever nice to me was Iruka-sensei and the old man... Everyone will be happier when I'm gone. After all, I-I'm just a demon...'
Naruto braced himself for the inevitable, but strangely he heard foot steps running towards him. He wrote it off as someone comming to watch the demon be slain.
"Burn in hell you filthy demo-AHH!"
Naruto's eyes snapped open to see the shinobi who had been holding the kunai on the ground unconcious, the other two beside him glaring at the girl standing infront of him facing his attackers in a strange fighting stance.
'What's going on? Why is she defending me? Wait I've seen that hair style before! Yeah she's in my class! What was her name again? Hanita? Hanati? Wait it was Hinata!' thought Naruto in shock as he staired at the indigo-haired girl who came to his rescue.
"H-Hina-na-ta?" the blone choked out.
"What do you think you're doing you little bitch?" snarled the shinobi.
"You'll pay for that!"
Hinata stood her ground glaring daggers at the two who dared to hurt her crush.
"I wont let you hurt Naruto-kun!" she declared firmly, cheering herself for not stuttering. "Even if I die I will protect my Naruto-kun with my life!"
The fact she had called Naruto her's was missed by her and the other two but not by Naruto whose eyes were wide with shock. He tried desperately to yell at her, tell her to run but his voice failed him and he couldn't get his body to work.
The two chunnin attacked Hinata with a flurry of punches and kicks as Hinata weaved and dodged as best she could striking out when she saw an opening. She held her own at first but was soon overwhelmed and caught by a right hook to the side of her head that sent her tumbling to the ground.
Hinata tried to get up but yelped in pain as one of the attackers kicked her in the ribs and knocked the wind out of her. The two closed in on her as she tried to catch her breath and push herself off the ground. The chunnin flipped her over with another kick to the side so she lay on her back staring up at them.
"Well I gotta hand it to you little girl you put up a much better fight than the demon did. So as a gift we will let him watch you die before we kill him."
"N-no leave h-her alone! I-I'm the one you want!" yelled Naruto finally finding his voice.
"Aww look at that the little demon doesn't want us to hurt his little whore! How sweet!" they laughed.
"Don't worry you'll join her in hell soon enough." the other said smiling as he pulled out another kunai and pressed it to Hinata's neck ready to slit her throat.
Hinata smiled softly over at Naruto, tears pouring down his cheeks.
"I-I'm s-sorry N-naruto-k-kun... I t-tried..." she whispered loud enough for him to hear.
"No..." Naruto whispered under his breath. His eyes locked with Hinata's eyes. 'I have to save her! Get up damnit! GET UP! Damnit! DAMNIT!'
The two shinobi smiled wickedly at the horrified look on the blondes face. They turned back to the Hyuuga girl so they could watch the light fade from her eyes when they slit her throat. But before they could commit the act a bright red light erupted from behind them. They whipped their heads around and what they saw paralyzed them with fear.
Standing where they blonde had once been laying was a girl who looked about 9 or 10 years old, wearing the same torn up clothse as the boy. She had long blonde hair that reached down to the middle of her back a heart shaped face, and 3 whisker marks on her cheeks.
Crimson chakara swirled around her violently, full of bloodlust and malice. Her body began to change, becoming feral. Her canines lengthened into fangs, the whisker marks on her face became thicker and more defined, the nails on her grew into thick, razor, sharp claws, and when she opened her eyes, they stumbled backwards in fear as blood red eyes with slitted pupils glared back at them with hatred. The girl growled at them like an animal and crouched down on all fours ready to attack.
"Wh-what the hell! Y-you really are a monster!"
"S-stay back y-you... you demon!"
The girl roared in rage flaring the red chakara around her before launching herself at the two adversaries as they attempted to flee. Meanwhile Hinata stared in awe and fear, having seen the her care free blonde crush turn into the blonde vixen who viciously attacked the two chunnin without mercy
'W-what's g-going on... Why did N-Naruto-k-kun s-suddenly turn into a girl? And wh-what is that red chakara?' thought Hinata frantically.
"Naruto-kun w-what happened to you?..." whispered Hinata. She shakily pulled herself up to her feet and staggered towards the girl Naruto and the two chunnin, which now lay on the ground bloody and broken.
"P-please *cough* please d-don't kill us." begged one of the shinobi.
"W-we promise we w-wont ever attack you or th-that girl again *cough* h-have mercy." choked the other.
They were barely holding onto conciousness, both covered in gashes all over their bodies, their clothse soaked in blood.
"MERCY?" the blonde growled out, her voice filled with venom, "did you show Hinata mercy? Did you show me any mercy? NO! You don't deserve any mercy... The only thing you two deserve... IS DEATH!"
Naruto brought her hand back prepared to end their miserable existence when a pair of arms wrapped tightly around her waist from behind.
"STOP!"
Naruto froze at Hinata's voice as the shy girl clung to her tightly.
"Please stop Naruto-kun, please don't kill them! I don't know why they attacked you or why you look like this but I know this isn't you! I can't bare to see you like this, so full of anger and hatred. So please... Please stop, don't become a monster..." Hinata cried into Naruto's shoulder. Her tears soaking the back of Naruto's jacket.
'monster...'
The word echoed through Naruto's head and she felt her heart twist in pain from Hinata's words. The red chakara faded and disappeared around Naruto and her demonic features disappeared as well. Raising up her hands her heart clenched at the blood that covered them.
"I-I'm sorry Hi-Hinata-chan..." whispered Naruto before she collapsed into Hinata's arms.
"Naruto-kun!" gasped Hinata, craddling Naruto as best she could lowering the blonde to the street.
Hinata quickly activated her byakugan to make sure her crush was alright, but to her shock all of Naruto's wounds were already healed, not even leaving any scars. Not noticing anything wrong with her Hinata sighed in relief but hissed in pain as she let out the breath as pain shot through her chest realizing that she probably had a cracked rib.
With great care she drug herself and Naruto over to a neerby tree and sat down leaning against the truck of the tree, craddling the blonde girl's hear in her lap running her fingers through Naruto's new, long smooth hair.
"What happened to you Naruto-kun..." Hinata muttered to herself as she gazed at Naruto's round face. 'N-Naruto-kun makes a really cute girl...' she thought for a second before shaking her head to get rid of the strange thought, her cheeks turning a familiar tint of pink.
Despite herself she glanced down over Naruto's body curiously...
'I wonder what she... No! I-I shouldn't it's not right... B-but...'
Her curiousity got the better of her and she activated her bloodline. Her face instantly turned beat red, steam poured out of her ears and a trickle of blood dripped down from her nose before her head fell backward against the tree.
One word leaving her lips as she fainted.
"Beautiful..."
